Happy New Year to all! We ended 2010 at Carrabbas's and with Lobby Day coming up, what better way to get started than w/ a good steak dinner. Not going to Richmond? Come on down anyway for good food and fellowship! Head'n south on Independence from Virginia Beach Blvd or S. Independence 264 exit the Roadhouse is on your right, you really can't miss it but just in case here's the adx:

I haven't had one of their steaks. What's wrong with them?

Don't like the way they're seasoned or marinated or whatever they do to them. They also won't cook it how I want it. The best steaks I've ever had were sourced from a local meat market and home cooked.

Just WHERE do you find a "local meat market"? I've been looking for a "country butcher" around here for YEARS without success. The military commissaries have better meat than the local grocery stores, but I would LOVE to find a real butcher that does it "right" and FRESH.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make this one due to my kids schedules.

I'll keep an eye out for the next dinner. :)

PS: It is always good to see someone scheduling their first dinner! Sorry I can't make it.

Ill have to bring my wife out there so we can meet you guys.

I'm from Texas and we have quite a few Texas Roadhouses there. I agree with the previous guy about their steaks, but you cant pass up the bread and cinnamon butter.

You said LONE STAR in the title, but you gave a address to Texas Roadhouse? :p I am confused. I am pretty sure its a Roadhouse
